About Me

Welcome to my Blog! I graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York City as a fashion designer. I worked in New York City for eight years in the fashion industry. After I had children, I moved from designing to working more with crafts and painting canvas. Today, my boys are in college and I am working, selling and exhibiting my work more than ever. I have a website where I teach crafts, painting, and sewing as well as My Etsy Store where you can buy my finished work. Please visit me at www.teawithlavera.com and LaVera.etsy.com (under "My Favorite Links").
